I do like cooking and eating the food though.D. Dogs: Don't have any pets. I love cats and dogs, but my job and commuting means I'm out of the house too many hours to give pets the attention they deserve. Plus the hair seems to make my eyes stream these days.E. Essential start to your day: A nice cup of tea(well I am English) made with PG Tips and plenty of milkF. Favorite color: Purple. Well I am the Purple Poetess.G.

Overnight hospital stays: Tonsils out when I was around 9...not a fan of hospitals due to many health probs since being a baby.

I'm Katy, I live in North West England and I write about love, death, and everything in between. I also write about those past, present, and to be. My friends and family are the most important thing in my life and, as they are scattered all over the world now, the internet is a godsend for keeping in touch. My favourite country in the world is Italy. I write poems and book/music reviews as well as blogging. For reviews go to http://dakota.me.uk/artists.html?ifrm_1=http://dakota.me.uk/Books.html I also have a poetry page: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Purple-Poetess/69057868235?ref=mf
Enjoy!
